Great bookstore with helpful customer service. Finally, a real bookstore in Palm Springs!read more

I just wanted to write a quick update to my review. I decided to give this small bookstore another…read moretry since my first experience wasn't exactly a great one. I wanted to purchase a book that was on my TBR list, so we decided to visit the bookstore. I walked in, and the same woman greeted us with what felt like a forced hello. I asked if they had a certain book. I wasn't sure whether it was classified as a thriller or a mystery, so I said thriller. They did have the book, but when she handed it to me, she said, "It's actually horror," in a condescending and mean tone. I certainly hope she isn't the owner because she could use some serious customer service training. At the very least, she could learn how to be kind to customers. I definitely will NOT be back.

A birthday card, sympathy, card or other fun things. And the value is very good. I also buy my calendars from there every year. Geez, I just found my calendar for 2025. It's still wrapped up. My family came to visit so I had to put it away. Wow Mr. May is looking good!, Lol!!! Anyway I love Q Trading Company.

This review is for their new location not the street front shop but the one that you can find out…read morein the back patio. I believe this spot used to be a legal firm, but I was delighted to discover that it was now taken over by the just fabulous team! If you've wandered into their street front store for a gift before, then you definitely need to take a stroll through the little park in the back to this location. If you are like me and have struggled to find gifts for those most difficult people in your life who seem to have everything this might be the perfect one stop. Stunning and unique coffee table books to bar sets and elegant candle offerings. Every corner is styled beautifully and super easy to browse. Often times I feel overwhelmed by these boutique shops, but everything was well spaced with easily located price tags. I spoke with an associate Shannon who is an absolute sweetheart, and happy to walk me through the shop and explain every corner and provide suggestions and offerings. I felt so horrible because I wasn't here to buy gifts, but this will be one of my recommendations for anyone looking to get an elevated present. Understand that these are curated items and the price reflects this. I recommend that you take some time to explore every corner because there were a few small gift items that were more limit budget range. I can't wait to come back and do some serious shopping when I have the time!

The books are new and fresh (I bought 2), the décor items were awesome (I bought 2) and the fun, faithful gifts and cards were plentiful. But what impressed me, and blessed me most, was the neighborhood ministry this store owner was operating. A number of folks came in to see if they could help her with anything. Clearly she is a help and a light to them. It is a wonder any bookstore stays in operation these days, let alone Christian bookstores. But one with an amazing mission like this one, well, it is no wonder at all. It is the grace of God. I guarantee you will find what you're looking, and like me, you will find what you did not expect.

He gave me a great rundown of the stock, and even pointed out some stuff that fit the vague description of what I wanted. The organization here is excellent, and everything is clean, bagged properly, and easy to find. It's clearly a work in progress but the hard work shows. I visited this shop as well as the two most local shops to it, and this one is the only shop where I felt welcome, and able to shop. This is the best comic book shop in the palm desert area. The obly negative thing I can say is that I didn't get to meet the shop dogs! Great shop, great owner, and a great experience.

Boxes are labeled but don't seem to be in any logical order and there were a bunch of boxes we couldn't even look at because they were underneath a plastic table cloth with stuff on top of them. Also, there was a boxes Funko Pop on the shelf. I went to grab it to ask my husband if it was one he needed for his collection and I was told to be careful because it wasn't for sale. Alright. Maybe that needs to be on a shelf behind the counter then. Or there needs to be a sign on that shelf that says nothing on it is for sale. Alas. Could be a nice source for back issues if they were organized and accessible.
